  Change Starts With Humility

  Oct 4, 20261h 6mS3

  In this episode of Level Up Life: Muscle & Mindset Mastery, Adam Wittbrodt and Dave “Waz” Wazny sit down with Donny Warner for a raw and unfiltered conversation about addiction, recovery, humility, and what it really takes to change your life. Donny opens up about his past, the darkness that comes with addiction, and the changes he had to make to build a different life. We talk about why real change often starts with humility. At some point, we have to be willing to admit that what we’re doing isn’t working. We have to stop thinking we have all the answers, become willing to accept help, and take an honest look at ourselves. We also talk about the people who feel like they’re too far gone. When you’re in the depths of addiction, it can be hard to imagine life ever looking different. But there are countless people who have been in those same dark places and found their way out. Donny is one of them. This conversation is about owning your past without allowing it to define your future. It’s about being humble enough to change, willing enough to do the work, and understanding that recovery doesn’t make us better than anyone still struggling. It simply shows what’s possible. Real conversations. Real recovery. Real change. #LevelUpLifePodcast #ChangeStartsWithHumility #Recovery #AddictionRecovery #WeDoRecover #Humility #Change #Growth #Mindset #RecoveryIsPossible #Purpose #Podcast Sponsored by Pine Haven Senior Assisted Living in Hemlock, Michigan and Level Up Fitness and Training .

  Finding Connection in the Darkness

  Sep 27, 202654 minS3

  In this episode of Level Up Life: Muscle & Mindset Mastery, Adam Wittbrodt and Dave “Waz” Wazny sit down with Zack Peterson for an honest conversation about fatherhood, loss, mental health, connection, and finding hope during some of life’s darkest moments. Zack shares what led him to start the Midland Dad Club and why he felt there was a need to create a place for dads to connect, build relationships, and support one another. But the conversation goes much deeper. We talk about losing loved ones, especially at a young age, and how those experiences can stay with us and shape who we become. We also dive into the darkness people can find themselves in when life becomes overwhelming—the places where it can feel like there’s no hope and no way forward. Through it all, we come back to the importance of connection. Having people around us. Being willing to talk about what we’re going through. And recognizing that even when someone looks okay on the outside, we may have no idea what they’re carrying. Zack’s story is another reminder of why these conversations matter. Sometimes knowing we aren’t alone can be the thing that helps us keep moving forward. Real conversations. Real struggles. Real connection. If you or someone you know is struggling or having thoughts of suicide, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Help is available 24/7. #LevelUpLifePodcast #MidlandDadClub #MentalHealth #MensMentalHealth #Fatherhood #Grief #Loss #Hope #Connection #Purpose #Podcast Sponsored by Pine Haven Senior Assisted Living in Hemlock, Michigan and Level Up Fitness and Training .

  What Happened to You?

  Sep 6, 20261h 5mS3

  In this episode of Level Up Life: Muscle & Mindset Mastery , Adam Wittbrodt and Dave “Waz” Wazny sit down with Ryan Griffus for a powerful conversation about childhood trauma, homelessness, mental health, masculinity, resilience, and the impact of finally feeling seen. From the outside, Ryan appeared to have everything together. He was a talented athlete who helped his high-school football team win a state championship at the Pontiac Silverdome. Behind that image, however, was a young man struggling with neglect, homelessness, depression, loneliness, and suicidal thoughts. Ryan opens up about suffering in silence, the professor who finally made him feel seen, and how that moment helped change the direction of his life. Today, Ryan has transformed his pain into purpose as a counselor, helping vulnerable young people navigate trauma, mental health challenges, addiction, and difficult life circumstances. He is also taking his message into a new arena by launching his own podcast and creating a platform for honest conversations that need to be heard. Ryan’s story reminds us to look beyond someone’s behavior and ask, “What happened to you?” instead of, “What’s wrong with you?” It also reminds us that noticing someone, asking a sincere question, and creating a safe space can change the direction of a life. Real conversations. Real struggles. Real resilience. #LevelUpLifePodcast #MentalHealth #ChildhoodTrauma #MensMentalHealth #Resilience #Purpose #Counseling #Podcast #YouMatter Sponsored by Pine Haven Senior Assisted Living in Hemlock, Michigan and Level Up Fitness and Training .

  The Fall Is Not the Finish

  Aug 30, 20261 hourS3

  In Episode 21 of Season 3 of Level Up Life: Muscle & Mindset Mastery, Adam Wittbrodt and Dave “Waz” Wazny sit down with Andrew Ortiz for a powerful conversation about addiction, recovery, faith, family, and rebuilding a life with purpose. Addiction can take someone further down than they ever imagined. It can damage relationships, separate families, destroy trust, and make it difficult to believe there is still a way forward. Throughout the episode, Andrew opens up about the fall that came with addiction - and the rise that became possible through recovery. This conversation isn't only about what addiction took from him. It's about what he has worked to rebuild. Andrew shares the importance of family throughout his journey and how recovery has allowed him to become more present for the people who matter most. Rebuilding relationships doesn't happen overnight. It takes accountability, consistency, forgiveness, and a willingness to keep showing through actions that change is real. Faith is another central part of Andrew's story. We discuss his relationship with God, the role faith has played in his recovery, and how believing in something greater can provide strength, direction, and hope during the moments when the path forward feels uncertain. The conversation also explores the importance of discovering passion and purpose after addiction. For Andrew, that passion includes taking people's ideas and visions and turning them into stickers. What may sound like a small creative business represents something much bigger: the opportunity to build, create, serve others, and bring someone else's vision to life. Recovery isn't simply about leaving substances behind. It's about discovering who you are without them, rebuilding what was damaged, and creating a life you no longer feel the need to escape from. Andrew's story is proof that the fall does not have to be the end of the story. With faith, family, accountability, and purpose, it is possible to rise again. Real conversations. Real recovery. Real people rebuilding their lives. This episode is a reminder that no matter how far someone has fallen, their story is not finished. Recovery can create the opportunity to rise, rebuild, and turn a painful past into a purposeful future. #LevelUpLifePodcast #AddictionRecovery #Recovery #FaithInRecovery #Family #God #Purpose #Redemption #Entrepreneurship #CreativeBusiness #EndTheStigma #WeDoRecover #RecoveryIsPossible #LevelUpLife Sponsored by Pine Haven Senior Assisted Living in Hemlock, Michigan and Level Up Fitness and Training .

  What Comes After the Darkness?

  Aug 23, 20261h 1mS3

  In Episode 20 of Season 3 of Level Up Life: Muscle & Mindset Mastery, Adam Wittbrodt and Dave “Waz” Wazny sit down with Carole Evans for a powerful conversation about addiction, recovery, fitness, mindset, and finding purpose after some of the darkest years of life. Recovery is about more than simply stopping the substance. Throughout the episode, Carole shares her journey through active addiction, the darkness that came with it, and what it took to begin rebuilding a life on the other side. We talk openly about the dark years—the decisions, consequences, pain, and loss that can come with addiction. But this conversation isn't about staying stuck in the past. It's about what happens when someone decides their past doesn't have to determine where their story ends. The conversation also dives into the role fitness can play in recovery and mindset. Training isn't just about changing how you look. It can create structure, build discipline, provide an outlet for stress, and show you that you're capable of doing difficult things. The lessons learned through fitness often extend far beyond the gym. We discuss how physical strength and mental strength can begin to build together. Showing up when you don't feel like it. Becoming comfortable with discomfort. Setting goals. Keeping promises to yourself. Learning that progress happens through consistency rather than perfection. These principles can become powerful tools when rebuilding a life in recovery. But eventually, recovery has to become about more than simply surviving. One of the biggest themes of this episode is purpose. What happens after the chaos stops? Who are you when addiction is no longer controlling your life? What do you do with the experiences you've lived through? And how can some of the darkest chapters of your story eventually become part of something meaningful? Finding purpose doesn't erase the past. It gives you a reason to keep building the future. Carole's story is another reminder that where someone has been doesn't have to determine where they're going. Addiction may be part of someone's story, but it doesn't have to be the final chapter. Real conversations. Real struggles. Real recovery. And a reminder that making it through the darkness isn't the end of the story. Sometimes it's where the most meaningful part begins. #LevelUpLifePodcast #Recovery #AddictionRecovery #Fitness #Mindset #Purpose #FindingPurpose #MentalHealth #Transformation #EndTheStigma #WeDoRecover Sponsored by Pine Haven Senior Assisted Living in Hemlock, Michigan and Level Up Fitness and Training Support the show https://linktr.ee/theleveluplife
